No. Original shit just doesn't get mainstream attention because modern fuckheads are so brainrot that they can't bring themselves to take half a step outside of AAA retardation

There has never been anything "original". Everything has always been based on something that came before it.

The reason it doesn't get mainstream attention is because "original" doesn't mean "good"

Formulas become formulas for a reason; because they work. Only the cream of the crop gets mainstream attention.

If the end goal of a movie corporation is making money, "working" means "making the most money".
In other words, slop for the lowest common denominator.
Check the most selling movies in China, its shit.

9 to 5s have devolved into meaningless busywork jobs that don't actually contribute anything to society. They just keep the population busy, distracted, and exhausted.

Honestly, Gen X may be even worse than boomers. At the very least, boomers value work ethic and success. Gen X embraces laziness and mediocrity.

So what? As long as you're making money to support yourself and your family, who gives a shit if you're "contributing to society"?

Nothing ever was origional from the beginning.
All art derives from older art, or from copying reality. All languages evolve from older ones, or from pictures of real things. All stories are retellings of older stories, or inspired by actial events. All philosophies are derived from older philosophies, or are misconceptions of reality. All religions evolve from older ones, or form by asserting deitys are behind misunderstood observations of nature.

why would a boss give you more money than he's making? when you take a job, you're making a tradeoff, the job provides you relative stability but you earn less money. if you want to earn more money, you can try to start your own business, but this is a much riskier endeavor and has a high chance of failure. the job is a de-risk tradeoff with the cost of making less money.

You tried. The movie isn't even the same as the book. It has a whole bunch of changes, but the original author liked it. It changed one of the main characters for the better too.

That only proves that you're a retard. Why and how can you be working a job for 6 years which doesn't pay enough for you to live. Cut down on expenses or find a better job.

No, you are just a stupid robot who only takes words very literally. Every normal human understand that originality in a creative sense means a certain threshold of a number of influences and personal experience are combined to make something that feels fresh. There are still plenty of creative combinations to make new vidya with but modern devs only rip off one game from your childhood and don't bother adding anything to it besides different graphics and dialogue.

only true for indie games or first time developers. any big name publisher will get mainstream attention due to years of brand buildup regardless of game quality ex: COD or Ubisoft shit. and lets not pretend the standard for a high quality game hasn't fallen when every other game that isnt complete dogshit is regarded as a masterpiece.

When I browse the catalog I agree. Your thread is the testament on the death of creativity. Just worthless statements and no call for WHAT should be improved.
How hard is it? Are you dumb? Needs others for you to bring you fun? Make every game moddable. Companies have no interest in keeping games alive.

Modern games were meant to be expired so you can buy Call of Duty every year anew.
